And what I love the most about my job is that I always learn just as much from my students as they learn from me. I enj... Read more

Nina

Experienced Violinist looking to teach

I have played violin for going on 21 years now, and I have experience with several semi-professional orchestras as well as being the concertmaster of one currently.

When I do work with kids, I love their enthusiasm and unbridled energy and happiness. I'd be happy to pass my experience on to anyone who is willing to work... Read more

Anna

Positive and encouraging

I will be a student all my life and love to help others learn. I was educated at home from 1st through 12th grade, so I am used to independent studies and classroom settings as well.

I was not the +A student, but because I was able to sit down, one-on-one, with a tutor and ask all my questions, I was able to become an +A student. The grades are important, but understanding is the goal. My own struggles with math hav... Read more
